Uggla was hitting just .162 this season and had lost his second-base job to Tommy La Stella. In his four years with the Braves, his combined average is just .209.

Atlanta's on the hook for the rest of the $13 million he's owed this season and all of the $13 million he's owed in 2015, too. According to MLB.com's Mark Bowman, that total is approximately $18.5 million.

That means any team that wants to sign Uggla will owe him just the MLB minimum while he's on the roster. Contenders that could use low-risk help at second base include the Reds (with Brandon Phillips on the DL for another month), the Giants, the Orioles and the A's, while the Nationals and Royals could check on Uggla, too.
